Description
England 1944. When Madeline is sent a mysterious message telling her that she will be posted at Trent Park mansion, she can't help but wonder how she will be helping the war effort from a stately home. No sooner than she arrives, she signs the Official Secrets Act. Nazi generals are staying at the house. It is bugged with listening devices in every room, and it is up to Madeline to gain the Nazis' trust and coax them into giving up information. When Max Bamberger, a Jewish refugee, arrives with the same mission, Madeline finds herself trapped in a dangerous game of chess. Madeline had met Max in Germany before the war, her heart was his from the first moment they locked eyes, but they had been painstakingly separated when the Nazi's overran German cities. The hope that he had escaped was her guiding light in the darkness of war. With one of the generals taking a fancy to Madeline, her love for Max must remain a secret. When Madeline uncovers details on Hitler's plans that could change the face of the war, she must act quickly. But not everyone at Trent Park is on the same side. When the walls have ears, who can you trust? Based on the true events that took place at Trent Park during WWII, this is an emotionally gripping, and heartbreaking novel about love, sacrifice, and betrayal, perfect for fans of The Rose Code and The Lost Girls of Paris.
